The countdown is on to Thanksgiving and I am here whipping up my favorites to share with you for the Holiday feast.  One of our family traditions is Mashed Potatoes and Turnip. At our table, Thanksgiving wouldn't be complete without this. Recently my family and I were discussing our favorite meals and my husband said that Mashed Potato and Turnip is definitely in his top three so I knew I had to make a version for the pressure cooker. One of my secrets to a good mash is melting the butter with fresh chopped garlic and letting it bubble away for a few minutes. Just when the little bits start to brown I know it's done. It makes your house smell amazing and adds a great flavor to whatever you put it in.  I am so lucky that my father has some beautiful gardens and gifted me with his own homegrown garlic!

One trick I learned when I used to cook in restaurants, is that if you add your butter to the potato first, the starch sucks it up, resulting in more buttery mashed. Who knows if it's true but my potatoes taste rich and delicious every time! Yield: 2-4Author: Pressure's On 20 minutes and you'll have this delicious mash done, from start to finish. A Thanksgiving favorite, but these Mashed Potatoes and Turnip made in the pressure cooker are easy to make all year round!
